Nothing is inincompressible

For practical propose, it defined water as incompressible since its' compressibility is very low. To compressed water down to 99/100 of original volume you would need a pressure of 217 Bar approximately. Any normal pressure vessel would burst at such pressure. It is then considered water as incompressible.

incompressible fluid means the density of the fluid is remains constant with respect to time. basically density is the function of temperature and pressure.

Water is incompressible fluid when what we do for bring it is compressible?

It can't be made compressible, if that's what you mean - unless you turn it into steam.There really is no such thing as an incompressible fluid; but the amount a liquid's volume changes under pressure is so little, that for many practical purposes it can be considered incompressible.


What is the difference between a compressible fluid and an incompressible fluid?

The density of a compressible fluid changes with pressure, while the density of an incompressible fluid is not affected by pressure (assuming isothermal conditions).


Is blood a compressible fluid?

if the density of the fluid changes with respect to pressure is called compressible fluid f the density of the fluid does not changes with respect to pressure is called incompressible fluid


Is water an ideal fluid?

Ideal Fluid:An incompressible fluid that has no internal viscosity.


Why does the density of an incompressible fluid remains constant?

In incompressible fluid density is same because velocity gradient is same on every layer of liquid at any cross section.


Why does incompressible fluid happen?

because of the mobuile motion of the nolecules


What is meant by incompressible viscous fluid?

Which word do you not understand? incompressible - cannot be compressed viscous - resistant to flow, "thick" fluid - substance that flows (both gases and liquids are fluids, but gases are usually compressible; liquids generally aren't)

What are the two factors that affect the pressure of the fluid?

For incompressible fluids it is its density and the height of the fluid over the point where the pressure needs to be determined


Can energy as work be transferred to an incompressible fluid contained in an insulated cylinder fitted with a frictionless piston?

no, because there will be no change in volume


What is the relation between temperature and pressure for an incompressible fluid in a fixed volume?

P is inversely proportional to T (or P/T is a constant).
